About Nigel Magowan – Manchester Hypnotherapist

Nigel Magowan is a well regarded professional Manchester Hypnotherapist and a UKCP and BACP Registered Psychotherapist. In his work he integrates Psychotherapy and counselling, with Clinical Hypnotherapy, NLP, CBT, EMDR and Life Coaching.

He has been in full-time private practice as a hypnotherapist in Manchester since 2002, and is trained to offer both short-term therapies (typically 6 to 12 sessions) such as brief psychotherapy, clinical hypnotherapy, NLP and CBT, as well as mid to longer term psychotherapy and counselling (typically several months to a year or more).

He combines his wide range of training, skills and experience to produce a comprehensive flexible and effective treatment that is tailored to your exact needs. He believes that as everyone is unique, there is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach to therapy, therefore unlike many hypnotherapists, he does not simply read to you from standardised pre-written hypnosis scripts. He prefers instead to talk with and pay close attention to the person sat in front of him, in order to build a unique therapy process tuned to that individuals needs, at that moment in time.

He has also received additional specialist training in working with anxiety, addictions, anger, abuse, PTSD / trauma, IBS, insomnia, managing pain, panic attacks and panic disorder, shame, stress management techniques, and ecotherapy. Nigel is also a fully trained GHR accredited supervisor and is able to offer supervision to other hypnotherapists, NLP practitioners, and complementary therapists. He holds an Advanced Diploma in Contemporary Psychotherapy, has two NLP Master Practitioner certificates, an NLP Coaching Certificate, an NLP Practitioner certificate, and a certificate in CBT. He is a fully trained EMDR Therapist. He is an Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapist, Life Coach, and Ecotherapist.

His psychotherapy training was with the UKCP accredited Beeleaf Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy in London. He is also a Registered Member of the BACP. As well as his psychotherapy training, he also has extensive training in various styles of hypnosis, including traditional and indirect approaches, Ericksonian Hypno-Psychotherapy and conversational hypnosis.

Professional Training

It is important that any therapist you choose is safe, reputable, and has undergone extensive and thorough training. This should include their own personal therapy, as well as regular supervision of their work both during and after their training. Supervision ensures that the therapist is working in a safe manner and is practising in your best interests. Personal therapy ensures that the therapist has dealt with their own personal issues before working with you. Therapists who are members of reputable professional bodies such as the UKCP or BACP have had to meet these very strict training and entry requirements.
